Easy Scones

Baked good don't get any easier than these three-ingredient scones, which get their fluffiness from self-rising flour and soda. Best served warm, reheat them in a 350° oven for about 5 minutes (You can also use the toaster oven to save time.)

Ingredients

3 c. self-rising flour

¾ c. lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite)

¾ c. heavy cream

Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center. With a fork, gently stir in the soda and cream, mixing until incorporated (do not overmix).

Drop 8 large spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with raw or granulated sugar, if desired, and bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve warm with butter and honey or jam.
